STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- Looks like Staten Island residents couldn't sweet talk their way out of these tickets.

Police issued a total of 389 summonses on Staten Island during a two-day citywide crackdown on speeding, according to statistics from the NYPD.

While the Island received the lowest actual number of tickets across the five boroughs, it ranked the highest per capita -- 8.2 tickets for every 10,000 people.

With a significantly smaller population than the other boroughs -- 472,621, according to Census data -- Staten Island drivers managed to pile up speeding tickets a nearly twice the rate of its neighbors in Brooklyn.

For example, just across the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge, police issued a total of 1,249 tickets to Brooklyn drivers. While that's the highest number of actual tickets police handed out during the 48-hour enforcement period, it's the lowest per capita.

Brooklyn, with a population of 2.6 million, had a ticket rate of 4.8 per 10,000 people.

Manhattan, with a population of 1.6 million, received the second highest number of speeding tickets per capita during the crackdown, with police issuing 1,175 summonses to drivers, at a rate of 7.2 per 10,000 people.

The Bronx received 782 summonses (5.5 per 10,000), while police in Queens handed out 1,219 speeding tickets (5.3 per 10,000).

In the entire month of April, police issued a total of 437 summonses for speeding across Staten Island, according to NYPD statistics -- that's nearly as much as driver's received over the two-day crackdown. For the year so far, police have handed out 1,930 speeding tickets on Staten Island.

This week's police crackdown marks the second such effort from the NYPD this month. Earlier in May, police led similar efforts against cell phone use while driving and failing to yield to pedestrians, which resulted in police issuing a total of 5,258 summonses citywide.

The intense NYPD ticketing measures comes on the heels of Mayor Bill de Blasio's effort to curb pedestrian deaths, known as "Vision Zero."
